    How major is the difference between running with and without Steady Aim on a AR? I'm thinking about going Warlord and adding dual mags to my Reflex, but I'm unsure how much worse it will be without Steady Aim.

    Also, anyone with Ninja Pro yet? I swear I have yet to hear anyone running around, even if they have a non-Ninja build. Can you actually hear things with Pro? If not I'm sticking to my motion sensor.

    If you ADS all the time you won't notice much difference...though you won't be able to ADS out of sprint as well anymore...and that is a negative if you're really aggressive playstyle-wise.

    Hmm, I actually do ADS most of the time, I only hipfire when in close quarters so I may take Warlord back then. I'll keep Steady Aim on my FAL build, but on the Galil I guess I can take those dual mags after all.

    Is it weird that I love watching the empty reload animation on the Galil? Is it possible for a reload to be sexy?

    Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.

    The distribution of foregrips is really random. I'm betting it has to do with their reluctance to model all the warlord attachment combinations.

    Jesus fuck Activision, all I want to do is create an account so I can log in and look at My Theater from the website. Don't make me fill out that form fifteen times because everytime I hit submit, it doesn't actually advance the process and just reloads the page I'm currently on.

    And then when you finally do and I finally can verify, when I go to log in, it loads up...my email? Wait what the fuuuck?

    Shows 1.3 million for me.

    Also, I'm mad. I was fucking 14-1 in a FFA, called in my Gunship, and then there's a sound like a fucking gunshot in my house. I am forced to immediately quit to check out what the fuck.

    It was a goddamn party balloon bursting.

    Getting domination unlocked took me three matches, and I'm, well, not very good. Unfortunately, the other game types are further up the level tree (headquarters at level 10, ctf at 13, and 'team tactical', whatever that is, at 19). It's not the worst thing ever, but I still don't know why they do it.

    Playeing on the PA server last night was fun as hell, but now it looks like the game is actively trying to make me hate it. Server browser's broken again, can't join on friends or through invites, spamming me with "the server is full" messages even when I'm on the menu-screen, and interrupting my class setup with random loading dialogs.

    Amen to that, nothing like running around a corner and running into 3-5 guys who just spawned 10 feet in front of you....all looking in your direction.

    *BLAM* *BLAM* *BLAM* *SPLAT*

    Fucking spawn....

    ALso is it just me, or is the recoil on the guns kinda spastic/retarded? The recoil from like the galil and the aug, don't seem to follow any sort of pattern, it makes trying to line up shots after the initial 3 bullets damn near impossible.

    Recent quote from a prepubescent in a TDM lobby after the next map was voted for instead of a Nuketown replay... "These Doritos are so good" *notices map lock-in* "OH MY GOD! WHY WOULD YOU NOT VOTE FOR NUKETOWN? OH MY GOD YOU ALL SUCK."

    Not a fan of playing the same map over and over again because 2 people voted for it, 1 voted for next (me), and the rest of the lobby didn't realize they can vote.
